Bring me yer dead and dying, Admiral. I should like to laugh in Sparrow's face one last time before surrendering to your eternal hell.


...He is dead, is he not?

I like the fear in their eyes when I come to collect.

Yeah see that's the part that makes kids like her who haven't learned self control yet go straight for the jugular. Christ, has nobody ever told you about cornered animals?

Re: Big Steph

[tentacruelest]

Don't get much of animals on my ship: no. Speak your piece.

Re: Big Steph

[ichoosefight]

Even the gentlest animals will bite if you corner them. You want her not to attack you? Don't threaten her. She'll defend herself. And if I remember right, she'll defend herself hard.

Big Steph

[tentacruelest]

I didnae threaten her.

Big Steph

[ichoosefight]

...Did you threaten her friends?

Re: Big Steph

[tentacruelest]

Some slight little boy with a large dog. I killed him.

Re: Big Steph

[ichoosefight]

Oh for Christ sake. [ FACEPALMING SO HARD. ]

Okay. This is by no means strategical advice, because it definitely won't get you what you want. But it took me a really long time to learn how to fight for someone else and myself at the same time. Attacking someone else is like attacking her but worse.

Re: Big Steph

[tentacruelest]

I was a bit preoccupied at the moment. I don't oft stop to think about how my killing affects others as I'm killing 'em.

Re: Big Steph

[ichoosefight]

Well that's why you got your ribs broken. Mystery solved.

Re: Big Steph

[tentacruelest]

It was no mystery!

Re: Big Steph

[ichoosefight]

See, that was sarcasm, because it was just so painfully obvious why you're getting in fights with teenaged vigilantes when you go around killing people without giving it any thought.

Re: Big Steph

[tentacruelest]

Girl, I do not need yeh here to lecture me.

Re: Big Steph

[ichoosefight]

Maybe not, but apparently she needs me to lecture you. Me or not me, she's just a kid. Leave her alone.

[tentacruelest]

Don't tell me what to do, brat.

[Jones was full intending to leave Steph alone, but he rankles on being given orders]

[ichoosefight]

Don't make me come over there. I frickin' hate that place.

[tentacruelest]

Come, then. I invite yeh.

[ichoosefight]

Hell no, not if I can avoid it. I know what that place does to people.

[tentacruelest]

All it's done t'me is wish for death and what comes after.

[ichoosefight]

Yeah. Sometimes it does that to the wardens too.

[tentacruelest]

The wardens have a choice.

[ichoosefight]

Choice isn't black and white. Your options can be limited until all of your choices suck, even if you aren't physically forced into it.

[tentacruelest]

That's called life, girl. But hard choice though it may be, it wasn't taken from them!

[ichoosefight]

You think so? Then let me ask you this. Is the choice between wardening and not existing anymore actually a choice?

[tentacruelest]

Yes, it is.
